Oct-Dec Contest Entries - Paul Cunningham

Description from the author:

My animation is a music video of my old band, I was the drummer. My film was made mainly with Maya and Ipisoft, I used two Microsoft Kinect cameras. There are five characters, all of them except the drummer use motion capture from start to finish.

I had to build a ‘wireframe guitar’ to keep my arms lined up during recording but without blocking the heat signature that kinects need. Everything could be slightly adjusted using Maya’s animation layers.
